[he's hiding in a barrel. Secretly hiding in a barrel where no one can find him and he's heard other kids talk through the book thingy so:]


ACE! SABO! I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED BY PIRATES! WHAT DO I DO?!!

[POKEPOKEPO--

Pulls his finger back]

Eh? The world's greatest swordsman, really? That's awesome! I'm going to be King of the Pirates!

[action]

[yourotherleft]

You gotta get a lot bigger to be King of the Pirates.

[he's learning so much about Luffy, though. Just seeing him like this.]

And you need a strong crew.

[action]

[rubber_kid]

haha yeah I know! I gotta get stronger! [he folds his arms behind his head]

Na, listen! You wanna be in my crew when we grow up? I'm gonna need a strong swordsman and the Pirate King definitely needs the best in the world! shishishi

[action]

[yourotherleft]

Damn right I'm gonna be in your crew! Don't even have to ask me twice.

[except he totally did. DETAILS]

This ship is okay, though. We can stay here for now.

[action]

[rubber_kid]

Yeah it's my ship! [Oh! Fistpalm] A dream!

[cuz otherwise why would he have a ship?]

[action]

[yourotherleft]

[siiiigh.] I don't think it's a dream, Luffy.

More like a nightmare if it is.

[action]

[rubber_kid]

No way! I have my own ship and my own swordsman! [yep! already counted. But... sigh]

Ace... Sabo... [he rests his chin on the edge again] I wanted to sail with them. Stupid dream.

[action]

[yourotherleft]

[pats him on top of the straw hat]

I told you, Ace has his own crew. I dunno about your other brother, though.

[action]

[rubber_kid]

[moves to straddle the lip of the crow's nest] If Ace has his own crew, Sabo does, too. But I don't see anyone around.

[the big ocean can be kind of scary even if it's exciting]

Hey, if it's my ship, am I captain?

[action]

[yourotherleft]

Course you are. And we're sailing...

...dunno where.

[action]

[rubber_kid]

Then I wanna look for Ace and Sabo. [cuz he was the captain so he got to decide]

I'm gonna go find the wheel. [inches to try to get off the crow's nest and back on the mast but falls instead and lands face first, bouncing a few times before standing up, putting his hat back on, and looking around]

[action]

[yourotherleft]

Wha...Luffy! No!

[jumps down after him...well, more like scrambles down, all gangly and awkward]

You...you can't! Because, uh. Because you're not the navigator! [mhm yes this is good logic]

[action]

[rubber_kid]

Eh? [really] Who does that?

[action]

[yourotherleft]

Nami's the navigator. Sheesh, what kind of pirate are you, if you don't even know that? [so smug]

[action]

[rubber_kid]

Ehh? Really? Where is it? [no one ever told him that]

[action]

[yourotherleft]

[cackles.]

Nami's not an it...I dare you to call her that.

[action]

[rubber_kid]

Oh okay where is she? [he wants to find her right away]

[action]

[yourotherleft]

Around here somewhere.

[scanning the deck from way up here. Nope, not immediately visible. She might be in the galley or women's cabin. But she's around, he knows.]

Let's go down and find her.

[action]

[rubber_kid]

Okay. [yay going on adventure time! And then he realizes Zoro knows her] Is she your friend?

[action]

[yourotherleft]

Nakama.

[that should be explanation enough, as he hunts around.]

[action]

[rubber_kid]

[stares at him. He has nakama of his own already! And he's going to be a swordsman! That's so cool!

Okay! To be his captain and the Pirate King, Luffy has to be even cooler! Somehow]

Yosh, she'll be mine, too. [that's the first step] What's she like?

[action]

[yourotherleft]

Scary. Don't piss her off or she'll hit you.

[sadly, that's not a lie]

[action]

[rubber_kid]

shishishi Ace, too. [he likes her already. Though now that they're down in the hold he discovers a box half covered with a tarp and with writing on it and reads it carefully]

Aaace's speciall drink. Ehh? [happily pulls the tarp away to see bottles] So cool! I wonder what kinda drink?!

[action]

[yourotherleft]

[oh god no NO NO! ABORT MISSION!

Throws himself on top of the box of bottles]

Don't! It's...it's gross! See? Why would it be down here in the hold if it was good? Wouldn't it be in the kitchen?

[action]

[rubber_kid]

I don't care if it's gross! It's Ace's!

[grabs Zoro by the ankles and attempts to pull him off]

I wanna try one!
